Monday Open Thread

Forgot to hit publish yesterday…

Good morning. Woo boy it really came down yesterday night, huh?

  • I’m glad people are skipping the State of the Union.
  • How little coverage Lilli Moreno’s death gets in the mainstream media is really sad making. Maybe in general how regular it is for drivers to hit people.
  • The kids are alright.
  • Your legislator is out there not being contacted. Just, just give them a quick call.

    @Senate Judiciary Democrats

    A whistleblower just disclosed that FBI experts were delayed by AT LEAST A DAY in deploying to investigate Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

    Why?

    There was an FBI plane and pilot shortage… because Kash Patel was using them for personal flights.

    The current, ongoing razor thin Republican House majority entirely depends on the corrupt protection and preservation within Congress of two Republican House members who are actively obstructing criminal investigation into a number of very serious criminal offenses those two members have committed*.

    Keep this in mind as you watch the convicted multiple-felon rapist rant insanely at television cameras from a flag draped podium this evening, and his party cult members look on weeping and cheering.

    * Cory Mills, Florida – while conducting a longterm extramarital affair with a staffer with whom the Congressman was cohabitating in his Washington DC domicile, in February of 2025 the Congressman drunkenly and violently assaulted his partner and raped her. An arrest warrant was obtained but the DOJ refused to sign it and it has not been executed. In a separate but related Florida investigation later the same year Mills attempted to extort an ex-lover with revenge porn after she sought to terminate the relationship after learning of the February assault.

    Tony Gonzalez, TX – repeatedly sexually harassed a staffer with degrading and humiliating text messages while engaging in an extramarital affair with her. When the married staffer’s husband learned of the affair the Congressman cut her off and attempter to fire her, whereupon she committed suicide in her family’s back yard by self-immolation this past September. Gonzalez faces a primary election less than one week.

    Still on that.

    A Rando twatter got told to fuck off for lying about it being a black audience and WANTING low information dumbfucks to spread that he called black people “low-SAT” stupid.*

    * I have no intention of supporting Gavin Newsom in the primaries.

    Dyslexia is a medical diagnosis that was well established by the time Newsom was entering elementary school. It wasn’t especially remarkable, and interventions were resonably effective by then.
    Chances are most of you reading this know someone with dyslexia. It’s not unlikely someone reading this has dyslexia.

    An older sibling was diagnosed in elementary school. They qualified for a tuition scholarship to a highly respected private university on the west coast and graduated suma cum laude. Gained admission to the law school and served as editor of that school’s law review. Did this in spite of only mid-high SATs and LSAT scores. Took the bar twice to pass. Clerked for a very well known, crumudgeonly, slave driving 9th Circuit Judge. Dyslexia famously makes some forms of standardized testing extremely difficult. The data bears this out. It’s one of the most compelling knocks against standardized testing, since there are innumerable good examples of high performing individuals with dyslexia who have corresponding histories of miserable standardized test scores.

    A physician would know all this. Even one who had been kicked out of his profession.

    CBS poll ahead of the SOTU has 80% of independent voters responding that the state of the country is no better than one year ago*, with 57% responding it is worse.

    *According to Fat Hitler the Rapist (and our lying troll) one year ago the country was a shambles.

    In clear and indefensible violation of the law, independent analysis of the Epstein files released, now confirmed by sources who have had direct access to the original, unredacted file contents, shows that the DOJ has intentionally withheld at least 50 pages of FBI 302 interview records as well as accompanying notes, given by Epstein child rape victims, that either directly implicate Fat Hitler or name Fat Hitler as a material co-conspirator in the criminal activities described in the reports.

    @5 Yeah, personal medical records are PRIVATE. If you don’t understand that, maybe that’s why the hospital trespassed you.

    One of the Epstein/Trump victims interviewed in the withheld 302s was interviewed at least four different times by the FBI over a couple of years. Another such victim was interviewed on six separate occasions by the FBI over a two year span of time. Of these two victim’s multiple interview records only one record was included in the materials released by the DOJ. That was an interview record in which Donald Trump’s name was not mentioned.

    Remember when Republicans promised voters they would only go after doctors who perform abortions, not women who get them? They were lying that time, too.

    Two Republican lawmakers in Tennessee are floating an amendment to an abortion bill that would bring homicide charges against expecting mothers who choose to terminate their pregnancies.

    Catching a late dinner in my local sports bar and right wing radio host Clay Travis has an FS1 show. Spending the entire broadcast mostly on USA Men’s Hockey with chyrons “Team USA Honored in DC” because there is only a men’s team. And chyron ‘Celebrating American Exceptionalism”.

    Exceptionalism is a team that has been on the podium every olympics but ONE. Exceptionalism is being in the Gold medal game every Olympics but TWO.

    And he ends the show with footage of himself bench pressing.

    The incel energy is strong.
